Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

your guide will pick you up from the port holding a sign showing your name then you will go ahead to The pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx which are among the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and indeed already were even in Roman times. Each of these spectacular structures served as the final resting place of a king of the 4th Dynasty (c.2613–2494 BC). The Great Pyramid of Giza was built for king Khufu (c.2589–2566 BC), and the other two for Khafre and Menkaure, his son and grandson. Khufu’s pyramid is both the oldest and largest of the three, and the first building to exceed it in height would not be built for another 3,800 years!
then Visit the Valley Temple where the Priests Mummified the dead body of King Chephre.
